Massive Russian Attack Damages Ukraine's Energy Network, Killing Several

11/07/2025

A Russian drone slammed into a tower block in eastern Ukraine early Saturday while many were sleeping, killing three and injuring 12 people, Ukrainian authorities reported.  
  
The attack in Dnipro, Ukraine’s fourth-largest city, was part of a large Russian missile and drone barrage across the country that targeted power infrastructure and also killed a worker at an energy company in Kharkiv, farther north, a local official said.  
  
In eastern Ukraine, fighting for the strategic city of Pokrovsk has reached a key stage, with both Kyiv and Moscow vying to persuade U.S. President Donald Trump that they can win on the battlefield.  
 
A fire broke out and several apartments were destroyed in the nine-story building in Dnipro, the emergency services said. Rescuers recovered the bodies of three people, and two children were among the injured.  
  
Russia fired a total of 458 drones and 45 missiles, including 32 ballistic missiles.
